'Sorry, I Forgot'

This is my second post for today, please scroll down to see my 'Sparkles Christmas' creation!
Hugs xx

I am so sorry this post is so late, it was set to post at 11 but Mr Blog didn't or I didn't do it!! 
I have a very poorly 15yr old at the moment. Katie had a virus when she was younger & it got into her muscles, making everything ache & along with her clicky hip walking is difficult! So after being to the Dr today he says she has got this virus back, it will lie dormant in her & anything could set it off.....nice of our old Dr to tell me that arghh!!! Anyhoos she's go to rest & drink plenty of fluids & stop off school, which is such a pain because my whole routine gets messed up lol!! Oh I know she can't help being poorly, poor love! So I will get around to visiting you all as soon as I can!

It's time for the start of a new challenge over at The Perfect Sentiment, where this week we want you to

    This is so sweet Shell. I love the lacy edges. I'm so sorry to hear about your Katie. Her virus sounds like my fibromyalgia so I really feel for her. Hope she gets better soon.

    So sorry about what our daughter is going through. It's hard for anyone I'm sure, but doubly difficult during those precious teen years.

    Love your gorgeous card. Such an adorable image and fabulous coloring.
